Your
body is loaded with poisons which have been increasing since conception.
What does the research show? What illnesses and health conditions are
greatly increased by having these poisons in your body? Are there any
safe ways to reduce your “toxic load” also referred to as
“body burden”? Can reducing these toxins also reduce symptoms,
extend life, and prevent disease? These questions and more will be covered
in the paragraphs below.

In
simple language, a toxin is a substance which is toxic or poisonous
in any way to the body. Some toxins can cause death rapidly, such as
a bite from an extremely poisonous snake or other reptile, or breathing
in the vapor of an extremely poisonous gas in a high concentration.
Most toxic substances to which humans are generally exposed are far
more insidious and take years or decades worth of continual damage before
the actual symptoms appear.

Poisons
are always dose related. The same chlorine, fluorine or hydrogen sulfide
gas that can kill someone in a matter of minutes, will cause far less
harm, and symptoms from which a person can recover, at much lower concentrations.
Nitrous oxide (laughing gas) is very poisonous in high concentrations,
but in low concentrations and when mixed with adequate air or oxygen,
has been used for decades as an anesthetic in the dental industry. The
rotten egg smell which is observed with even minute concentrations of
hydrogen sulfide gas becomes extremely deadly when this gas is in higher
concentrations.

The
second issue is that of exposure time. It is well documented that inhaling
smoke from the chemically treated tobacco in commercial cigarettes can
increase the risk of lung cancer. Will this risk increase if only one
or two cigarettes have been smoked in a lifetime? I would highly doubt
it. It takes many years of regular smoking before obvious damage generally
becomes noticeable. Even after a decade, it is only seen in a small
percentage of individuals and most often not in those with truly adequate
intakes of protective nutrients. This is why Japan with its consumption
of high nutrient seaweeds, and a per capita cigarette consumption far
higher than in the U.S., has a much lower rate of lung cancer.

In
addition to cumulative exposure, an even more important issue is interactive
exposure of multiple toxins. In many cases, one poison may be only mildly
toxic but when it exists in the body in combination with a second or
third (or dozens) of other mildly toxic poisons, the effects become
multiplied hundreds or even thousands of times. The best example of
this was an experiment done with rats. The LD-1 of lead (the dose which
would kill one rat out of a hundred) was mixed with the LD-1 of mercury,
and these two combined to give a tiny lead and mercury dose which instead
of killing just two rats out of 100, it killed the entire 100! This
is why the few safety studies which are carried out on cleaning products,
pesticides, herbicides, fungicides and other chemicals are almost totally
useless. They always test only single chemicals and never multiple exposures
in the way we are exposed to them in real life. Let me just take a moment
to say that one of the best independent web sites of a nonprofit “watchdog”
agency, where you can read more about our body burden of toxins, is
the Environmental Working Group at www.EWG.org.
Please support them as they are monitoring the polluters and looking
out for our health and the health of those we love.

A
few of the well researched poisons and some of the places they may be
found in our daily lives include:

Chlorine--in
our drinking water, our laundry and, and many household cleansers-
Chloramines--in some drinking water in place of or in addition to chlorine-
Fluoride--in our drinking water, tooth pastes and still used by less
knowledgeable dentists-
Toxic chemicals in our air fresheners, deodorizers and “plug ins”-
Pesticides, herbicides and fungicides--in and on our fruits and vegetables
and in our air-
Heavy metals such as the mercury in every silver amalgam dental filling-
Hormones, steroids and antibiotic residues-in our meats, dairy and farm
raised fish-
Numerous toxic chemicals--in cleaners, polishes and solvents we use
in our homes-
Hundreds of poisons in small amounts in the air we breathe (worse indoors)-
Toxic chemicals- in the stain repellents on our new upholstered furniture-
The chemicals that give that “new car” smell-
Formaldehyde which out gasses from carpeting and press board in our
homes-
Toxic vapors released from the toner in our copiers and laser printers-
Fire retardant chemicals in our furniture, mattresses, and children’s
clothing-
Numerous different types of chemical “additives” in our
foods and toiletries-

The
list above is just the tip of the iceberg, but I wanted to be sure you
understand how extensive and invasive these chemicals are in our homes
and in our lives.

The
conditions for which there is published research documenting the connections
between some of these poisons and diseases include cancer, Parkinson’s,
ALS, Alzheimer’s, multiple sclerosis and many neurological diseases
of “unknown origin”. The MD, PhD experts at the scientific
conferences I attend each year continue to mention a very important
disease link. They keep saying that almost every degenerative disease,
auto immune disease, mental or emotional condition and a plethora of
others, are most likely caused or greatly aggravated by the numerous
toxins in our bodies. These same toxic substances are the ones which
our industrial society continues to generate more and more of every
year. These same poisons are the ones which most of us unknowingly (or
knowingly) use in our homes and businesses as well as on our bodies
and in our mouths every day.

Luckily,
it is possibly to reduce our risks by reducing our body burden of these
chemicals through whole body detoxification. In most cases I, and numerous
other professionals around the world, have seen numerous symptoms reduce
or vanish completely as the individual’s toxic load is gradually
reduced by proper detoxification.

Remember,
in most people, these toxins have been accumulating for a very long
time. Even though the symptoms may have begun only in the last couple
of weeks (or years) this is simply due the body finally becoming so
overloaded that it could no longer handle the poisoning that had been
going on for a lifetime. It is because of this, that the detox MUST
BE DONE SLOWLY! Imagine never cleaning your home for the last 20-50
(or more) years and then having someone with a commercial vacuum cleaner
move through the house. You would stir up so much dust that you would
have to stop immediately and would be coughing for hours. In the case
of detoxification of the body, it might even send you to the hospital.
Detoxification
MUST be done correctly and slowly. The body must be “prepared”
for the detox process. This is done by using special formulas to help
support and detoxify both your liver and kidneys for a month or more
BEFORE you begin to actually pull toxic chemicals from your tissues,
into your blood, for elimination through these two organs. I always
make it VERY CLEAR to my patients and students that the goal is to never
rush but to always be moving forward. The direction (forward-less toxins)
is what is important, not the speed. If you try to build a house in
a month, you will have a mess and not a house.

There
are so many benefits to reducing our toxic load that they are almost
endless but a few may include (everyone is different); more energy,
better elimination, less or no more headaches, better and more recuperative
sleep, improved memory, pain reduction, reduced tingling in body parts,
regulation of irregular heart beat, better hearing, improved smell or
taste, and many others. The single most important benefit for many is
the huge reduction in the risk of developing numerous degenerative and
even fatal diseases.

If
we continue to expose ourselves to all of the same toxins every day,
then it will be a great deal more difficult (and slower) to rid the
body of those which have already accumulated in our tissues. Learning
where these poisons come from and what must be done to begin the detoxification
process is not an extremely complicated educational endeavor. The education
will take a bit of time and a commitment on your part just like any
important thing you have ever decided to learn how to do. The application
of this important knowledge can extend your life, reduce your risks
of numerous extremely undesirable health conditions and make you a much
happier healthier person. I have even seen the detoxification process
save marriages and relationships as it can make huge differences in
emotions as numerous emotion disrupting poisons are slowly eliminated
from the body.

Since
the process of detoxification MUST be carried out correctly, it is not
possible to cover it in a short article. Since too many people will
not read a long book, I have produced a very comprehensive 2 hour video
(DVD) which teaches the process in a clear and easily understandable
manner. Included with the DVD is a CD for your computer. I have found
that it is simply too difficult for viewers to take adequate notes on
a topic like this.

The
CD I include contains all of the additional necessary information in
printable PDF format. I have specified the products which I use in my
office with my patients. I have included the doses and procedures I
use and the order that must be followed. I have included companies from
which you should be able to find the products that I discuss. In order
to be certain that I DO NOT violate any FDA regulations I do not tell
you which exact product to use. Since I often use a different kidney,
liver, lymphatic or detox product with different patients, it would
be impossible for me to specify your exact products on the CD and DVD
and I might be violating the FDA’s treatment doctrine. I do however
give you all the best products and methods of use. Whichever products
you decide to use, if you should chose to begin a detoxification
program for your health, you will benefit tremendously. I even give
you information on learning the energetic testing method I use in my
office to discover which exact product is best for each of my patients.

I
put a great deal of effort and love into the production of my DVD’s.
I sincerely hope that anyone who views them and makes use the knowledge
I provide, will get all the benefits they are seeking.

I
would wish you good luck, but it is my expert experience that luck has
little to do with better health. Proper and valid knowledge combined
with correct and orderly application of the knowledge are the keys to
almost every goal in life. Improved health is no different and so I
wish you the desire to improve your health and the necessary effort
to carry out this important desire.
